I personally obviously would, since I believe that Salvation/Heaven is only through Christianity.  I probably wouldn't prefer that everyone had my exact theology (within evangelical Christianity) because there are legitimate theological debates that divide lower-case-o orthodox Christians and have since the time of Christ, and I can't be 100% certain I'm right on some of them.

I wouldn't say my entire religious/spiritual ideology (which is also subject to change for myself) but there are some core tenets/beliefs I'd love for everyone to adopt.

I would agree that if everyone shared my religious beliefs the world would be a much better place. However, if the entirety of what I believed, even that which is not inherently a part of my religious philosophy, but what does stem out from it, the world would either be a utopia, or a dystopian hellscape, with no inbetween.

Meh.  Not really.

I certainly want every person on Earth to convert to my ideology (voted 'yes, non-Christian'). My religion is kind of an arm's-length thing and consists of a particular attitude towards my heritage which I'm not sure actually makes any sense for anyone else that isn't, like, my literal sibling.

     Yes, easily. I want everyone to come to the Truth, wherein there is light and life.

I would have mixed feelings, but yes. I would deeply mourn the loss of the world's religious diversity, but it would be worth it in order to save all those souls, and I would deeply rejoice at the saving.

I would rather want every person to reject Christianity* (as it is now), but only if it meant something better. In other words, I wouldn't want the world to replace it with a false religion.
Jainism would be better, perhaps, but I don't know.

(By the way any religion that says that it is ok to murder your child is a false religion)

*Edit I could be persuaded to walk that back a little and say orthodox Christianity

No.

That would lead to, in short: Terrible imbalance and instability.
